Suggest Treatment For Thinning Of Optic Nerve Causing Loss Of Vision
One of my daughter s friend has lost 9/10 view on an eye and his starting to lose something on the other one because of a thinning of the optical nerve, the loss has occurred suddenly and in a week s time. Doctors have said she may become totally blind in ten years time. Is there anything that can be done for her? I imagine the information I have is not enough for you, but maybe you can give an idea and I could get more information accordingly. Sorry for my poor English, I m Italian. Thank you for any help you can give
